As WUBR ("The Bear"), the station played adult standards. Later, the format changed to sports, carrying ESPN Radio. In December 2005, the station switched to a talk format, but returned to sports in simulcast with WJRW following the January 2019 discontinuation of WBBL-FM's sports format.[2][3]
On August 24, 2021, the station changed its call sign to WLAW and then, on August 30, 2021, changed to a simulcast of "Nash Icon" country music WLAW-FM.
